Hazel May Eckert
Hazel May Eckert’s photographic-based practice exhibits her investigations of those unique elements of photography, with particular interest in how the medium is utilized and experienced in contemporary culture.
Hazel’s recent projects have included her in-depth considerations of how photography is digitally encountered by the greater social body through mass social media outlets. Her ongoing Soft Focus series presents works created from unresolved images encountered on her iPhone from . Instead of dismissing encounters with blurry images as unwelcome frustration, the works in this series bestow Hazel’s considerations of how they may rather be fleeting opportunities to reflect upon the beauty of the captured moment in its awkward stage of becoming. Hazel’s print practice, however, is not limited to the digitally photographic. Her silkscreen print, Silhouette, presents an image that integrates the segmented forms of two apparently disparate figures; a distinct yet comparatively unresolved pictorial experience.
Hazel May Eckert received a BFA in printmaking from OCAD University (2008) and a diploma in graphic design from the College of the North Atlantic (2017). Eckert’s work has been presented in solo and group exhibitions across Canada and she the recipient of numerous awards, grants, and residencies from the Ontario Arts Council, ArtsNL, Open Studio and The Rooms. She is also the creator of Nothing New, an independent publishing insignia focused on the production of small-scale artist editions and contemporary print-based works. Eckert is currently based in St. John’s, NL.
